It is only for overseas military from WV using mobile devices for voting on foreign soil.
No cause for concern.

I enjoyed this article, it used ML to classify geographical areas in NY culturally, based on pizza topping availability and $1 slice availability.
They also attempted to predict the likelyhood of availability of toppings, based on neighborhood features.

So, I used to have a full-size keyboard with a built-in calculator as part of the numpad (had an LCD display above).
I would love to built an updated version.

The board is less expensive to fabricate because it is physically smaller.

This is really not out of the realm of a dedicated hobbyist.
The switches and keycaps can be ordered from quite a few vendors.
Also, custom circuitboards are no longer difficult to design or produce in small quantities (especially separate left/right boards).
Use a Teensy to wire it together as a USB HUD device.
3d print the case.

Strange claim about what the site 'implies'.
I use hashids and did not assume such things.
I use it so a jerk end-user can't keep incrementing an integer-based URL param.
